+    Bazel build file for GRPC java binaries. This build file is injected into the GRPC source tree to allow
+    ONOS to build it. Published binaries of the GRPC library split the definition of the io.grpc
+    package across multiple jar files. This renders them unusable in an OSGI environment, so
+    ONOS builds its own libraries here.
